Your dog has been your faithful companion for many years, and you’re truly grateful to be able to spend your time with him. You’ve been thinking about the fact that he’s getting older, and you want to make sure your care for him reflects his current needs as a senior. How can you do this?

Your pet will need you to take the time to assess him as he currently is. It’s likely that certain changes will need to be made over time, like switching to a food designed for canines in their senior years. Other alterations can be made as needed, like accommodating a pet with limited mobility, or helping your pet get an appropriate amount of exercise. The key is to be vigilant and address issues promptly as they arise. For additional information, please contact your vet Marietta, GA.
